Sphinx 3D™ immerses the player in ancient Egypt where pyramids, sphinxes, and scarabs seem to jump off the screen or stretch into infinity in high resolution 3D. Housed in the next-generation AXXIS™ cabinet, Sphinx 3D offers innovative and immersive content along with an advanced button panel and a benchmark multimedia chair.
“Innovation forms the backbone of our company’s success, and we are proud that Sphinx 3D, the first title in our new TRUE 3D product line, has been recognized at the prestigious GGB Gaming & Technology awards,” said Cindy Hovey, Sr. Director of Product Management with GTECH. “The brilliant 3D image quality offers high resolution, color fidelity, brightness, and true 3D depth without the need to wear special glasses, making it a first on the casino floor. Players can see it for themselves starting in 2014.”
This 3D experience, which uses a glasses-free 3D display designed exclusively for GTECH for the gaming industry by SeeFront, is achieved by a unique autostereoscopic technology with integrated eye-tracking. The image is processed and displayed so that the ideal 3D picture self-adjusts to match the players’ precise line of sight even when they move their heads – all without the need for special glasses.
Visitors to G2E can experience this award-winning technology for themselves by visiting GTECH Booth 1265.
